Hey, you mean I'm not the only one?! Cool!
I get this rush when something happens to my hubby or kids, and I always
assumed it was empathy. I want their pain to go away so badly. When my
littlest one has had to have blood drawn it just kills me. I sit there
holding him trying not to shake and cry myself (I have to lay down to get
blood drawn or I get hysterical. Long story...), an it is traumatic for both
of us. But, as soon as it's done, I pop him onto my breast, he stops crying
hard, an occaisional whimper now and then, but we both feel immensly better!
Talk about those calming hormones working wonders! Maybe I should try BF
when I have blood drawn from myself next time!
